This short history of Western Australia from 1826 to the present
vibrantly narrates the social, cultural, political, and economic
development of the most geographically isolated area in the world.
Informative and analytical, the author's wry observations about
mirages as a major theme in Western Australia's history will
stimulate public debate. It covers such topics as the evolution of
popular Western Australia institutions, the rise and fall of WA
Inc. and associated personalities, the mining boom, indigenous
history, isolation as fuel for parochial attitudes and stereotypes,
and entrepreneurship.
This final volume of a revised edition of the journals, completes
the life story of significant pioneer and clergyman, John Ramsden
Wollaston, an Anglican clergyman who migrated to Australia with his
family in 1841. It also provides a fascinating insight into early
colonial life.
